Blanch noodles in boiling water until it softens and is cooked through.It won't take long depending on the noodles that you are using.

Pound dried prawns, garlic and chillies in a pestle and mortar until fairly fine.

Heat a wok and pour in about 2 tablespoons of oil and then saute the pounded ingredients until fragrant and the paste looks a little golden at the edges. Throw in the noodles, bean sprouts and the chives and some soy sauce and the salt. Give it a stir to mix them all up well and evenly. You may add some water if it too dry. Serve with garlic ginger chillie hot sauce and a wedge of lime. Enjoy!

Zurin, it is totally ok to use the skinny noodle from the pack - it is what we call egg noodles, I believe. Not the same as those instant noodles - no instant noodles would look this scrumptious- that's for sure!

What a refreshing choice of breakfast! I never eat noodle for breakfast in the US, but when I travelled in China, the hotels always provide both Asian and Western breakfast options and it's so cool to eat noodle, steamed buns and drink soymilk for a change.
